Just five minutes a day

Short, regular bursts beat long, occasional slogs. A few 60-second rounds after school or before dinner keeps practice cheerful and pressure-free, and the personal-best score gives your child a reason to come back tomorrow.

Which skill for which age?

  • Ages 5–7: start with Number Bonds (to 10, then 20), Doubles and Halves on Easy.
  • Ages 7–9: add Times Tables (pick one table at a time) and Division on Easy or Medium.
  • Ages 9–11: mix all tables, Square Numbers and mixed recall on Medium or Hard.

Keep it positive

Celebrate effort, not just the score. If your child finds a level frustrating, drop to Easy or switch to Practice mode (no timer) so they can build confidence without the clock. Cheer streaks, and let them pick the theme, a small choice that makes it their game.

Play together

Try the two-player mode and take turns, a friendly grown-up-versus-child race is a brilliant way to model that everyone makes mistakes and that maths can be fun.
